LAGOS, Nigeria(VOICE OF NAIJA)- The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has praised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his leadership and reform-driven governance, declaring that he is rebuilding Nigeria while the opposition continues to drag the nation backward in a bid to remain politically relevant.
The party made the remark in reaction to President Tinubu’s statement at the recent Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting, where he affirmed that “Nigeria is rising, and no amount of opposition bitterness can change it.”
In a statement issued on Saturday by its Publicity Secretary, Seye Oladejo, the Lagos APC described the President’s remarks as “a masterclass in clarity, confidence, and leadership grounded in verifiable results — not emotional blackmail or political hysteria.”
“While opposition figures are busy dragging Nigeria’s image through the mud to stay relevant, President Tinubu continues to rebuild the nation brick by brick, fact by fact, reform by reform,” Oladejo stated.
He lauded the President as “the leader for this season,” emphasizing that Tinubu has demonstrated courage, preparation, and strategic foresight since assuming office.

“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is unmistakably the President for this season — prepared, courageous, focused, and divinely aligned with the demands of this moment in our national history. Nigeria is blessed to have him at a time like this,” he said.
Highlighting Tinubu’s composure under pressure, Oladejo added:
“Where others panic, he strategises. Where others shout, he delivers. Where others sow fear, he inspires confidence.”
The party’s spokesman further accused opposition parties of distorting economic data to mislead the public, insisting that verifiable facts speak for themselves.
“The oversubscribed $2.35 billion Eurobond (over 400% subscription) is not a political claim — it is the world voting with its money. Investors are not sentimental; they are convinced that Nigeria is back on a growth path,” he said.
Oladejo also outlined what he called “hard facts” underscoring the administration’s achievements including “4.23% GDP growth, the best in a decade, 13 high-growth sectors expanding steadily, Industrial growth nearly doubled, Inflation reduced to 18.02%, Foreign exchange reserves surpassing $43 billion, N7.4 trillion trade surplus and Nigeria’s exit from the FATF Grey List.”
“These are the fruits of courageous reforms, not propaganda,” Oladejo concluded, reaffirming the party’s confidence in Tinubu’s leadership and the ongoing transformation of Nigeria’s economy.
